NCAA 3 umpire mechanics.
U1 on a single can stay outside on a single with no one on. They watch the touch and then move to a position 10' from the bag at 90º from the front of the bag. If there is a throw back that is the best position to see the play. U3 is coming over to a point 10' from 2nd at 90º from the front of the bag. U1 will come into a holding zone when the single runner goes to 2nd. If the runner goes to 3rd they (U1) will rotate home to the point of the plate. This is different than ASA.
Turning your head away from the ball and pointing on a 3rd strike is a big "NO NO" in NCAA mechanics. Not that it is too much like baseball it's just not seeing the ball is a bad thing. You would not be too convincing on a D3K call.
